I think it'd be fun! I'm married, but my wife is NOT a "camper", so the kids (b,12 & g,9) and I are it! ;-) We typically do the state parks around us (3hrs is farthest we've traveled so far), but we are limited to summer because my Sundays are tied up (I'm a pastor.)

My wife just suggested that we should set a goal to camp at least once in every month for the next year. We're in Ohio and usually camp on October and March. We just need to add November through February. We might need to add some of the ideas floating around on here.

As for our family, my five year old daughter is really the reason we bought Shiny. We actually began our camping adventures by taking my then 3 year old to the central CA coast in a tent. At that point she was already more accustomed to fine hotels than a tent. And, oh yeah, the communal bathroom didn't do it for her. We like to say that Shiny was an expensive fix to Ivy peeing her sleeping bag on two consecutive nights.

My wife really led me into this life. Most of her fondest childhood memories are based on RV camping with her family in the Sierra Nevada mountains. We now try to search out opportunities to camp with other children. We attended Alumafandango a few weeks ago. The best part was finding another couple four rigs down from us with a 5 year old daughter of their own. Our two girls were inseparable during the week. We are now planning on our next outing together.

We have four daughters, ages 10 through 14. Our travels are with a 30 foot bunkhouse, but mostly we stay close to home at Hidden Ridge resort. Lots to do there and within easy driving distance of our home so we can pick it up and go elsewhere any time we choose!
